Leicester camping pod (no pets)

Liked This was a really pleasant stay. Located in a lovely and peaceful area.

Ian was a great host, communication was brilliant and even went out of his way to fire the hot tub up for us for when we returned back.

We arrived to tea/coffee and fresh milk and fire wood readily available.

My girlfriend and daughter really enjoyed this stay!

We will definitely be returning.

Disliked It was all amazing

Local attractions

History buffs have a choice of mighty castles to tour: the ruins of 12th-century Pendragon Castle (15 minutes’ drive) is free for all to explore, while you have a fabulous view towards Lake District National Park peaks from Kendal Castle (40 minutes’ drive). Sprawling Barnard Castle (25 minutes) sits over the Tees Gorge, with the added benefit of the Bowes Museum and its sublime art collection close by. If you fancy a day out in the Yorkshire Dales, be sure to drive through Buttertubs Pass (40 minutes), one of the most spectacular roads in the country; from there take in the awesome waterfall at Hardraw (half an hour), shop for antiques in Hawes (40 minutes) or drop by to see the endangered red squirrels at Snaizeholme Red Squirrel Sanctuary (45 minutes). Turning west, you can organise family hikes and boat trips on Ullswater, or take the kids to see cute badgers being fed at RSPB at Wild Haweswater (both 45 minutes). If more action is needed to tire out over-energetic offspring, take them quad biking at the Outdoor Activity Centre (half an hour).
